The history of Palmisty originated in India, and later moved on to China, Egypt, and ancient Greece, gathering many different variations. In a book named "Physiognomy & Palmistry", Pythagoras, the ancient Greek mathematician, traces the history of palmistry back to 497 B.C. The right palm is normally used for line-readings.

The Destiny Line lies in the center of the palm and stretches up towards the middle finger. Not everyone has this line. It predicts the hardships of life that fate will bring you.
My Destiny Line:

It's important to remember that while your life's destiny is spelled put across your palm, nothing is set in stone. Always try to take control of your best abilities and your personal strengths to get as much out of your life as you possibly can.
